Tour Overview

This tour explores pivotal sites and stories of LGBTQ+ resistance that sparked the 1969 Stonewall Uprising, igniting the modern Pride movement.

Tour Highlights

In the years leading up to the Stonewall Uprising, the LGBTQ+ community faced systemic discrimination and marginalization. Raids on gay bars were common, with the Stonewall Inn being a prime target. On June 28, 1969, a police raid at the Stonewall Inn in New York City's Greenwich Village sparked a spontaneous protest, which evolved into days of demonstrations. This uprising marked a turning point in the fight for LGBTQ+ rights, inspiring activism and the eventual formation of the modern Pride movement.

  • Stonewall Inn: Visit the historic site where the uprising began and learn about its role in LGBTQ+ history.

  • Christopher Park: Explore this park, where many of the demonstrators gathered during the protests, now home to LGBTQ+ monuments.

  • LGBTQ+ Historical Markers: Pass by key sites where early pride marches and organizing efforts took place in Greenwich Village.

  • Activist Stories: Hear accounts of early LGBTQ+ activists who helped turn the momentum of Stonewall into a broader civil rights movement.
